Rowand44 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 1, 2011 -> 04:59 PM) I still don't think we can beat them 4 times in 2 weeks. Well after reading this, I'm more confident than ever in thinking we'll beat the Heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Unless the Heat have finally started running consistent offensive sets, I don't think they have a shot in hell at beating the Bulls. Their 1st unit is easily the most talented in the league, but their second unit is garbage and Thibodeau will coach circles around Spoelstra.

Brian Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 It seemed like Miami dominated but they only won by 9 and I don't think James Jones will have the same type of game again. I wanna say 7 games with game 2 being totally Pro Boston by refs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're just better than Boston at this point imo, that Perkins trade changed everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, Memphis is just a talented, well balanced overall team. I think in the end that OKC is just a little too talented and too good but the Grizzlies can play with anyone imo.

DBAHO Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 2, 2011 -> 09:35 AM) Funny thing is, I remember DBAH0 saying we should had hired him 2 years ago even without the interview based on his rep around the NBA as a defensive genius. (and he wanted him over SVG) I was a fan of his too, but didn't think he could handle particular match-ups/strategy and subs well. Even when he was hired this season, there were still queries about his ability on the offensive side of things, which I think he's put on the shelf for the time being at least. I don't think anyone has ever doubted his ability as a defensive coach (and as we've seen, good defense wins you ballgames in the NBA, simple as that). I think at the time, when you had VDN who hadn't even been an assistant coach let alone had any head coach experience vs. Tom Thibodeau who had been an assistant under Jeff Van Gundy for a long time, and then the job that he did in Boston with that team (and made Kevin Garnett probably the premier 1 on 1 interior defender in the NBA today), hands down it was a terrible decision from the Bulls front office at that point in time. Luckily for them, they got a do-over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better shot selection on offense (pounding the ball inside with Z-Bo and Gasol), and probably better defense because Shane Battier is getting more playing time. That said Gay is a very good player, but it's right to question at the moment whether he'd make the Grizzlies a better team at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said Gay is a very good player, but it's right to question at the moment whether he'd make the Grizzlies a better team at this point. Sam Young's also getting 20 minutes a game and he's not exactly a good player. He's solid defensively, but not so much on the offensive end. Like you said, Gay's a very good player and Memphis is probably better off with him than without him. Most Memphis fans will probably tell you that.

I still say if KG defends Bosh and limits him like he did yesterday with 7 pts, you can let Wade and LBJ get theirs but you CANNOT let a James Jones beat you. BTW, Rondo needs to get his head out of his ass, he had his first assist in the 2nd half, if he isn´t getting assists, he is basically worthless.
